Running Cloud is penalised for winning over 1m4f here a week ago but also scored over track and trip earlier in the year. Enmeshing steps up from 1m2f having won at Lingfield and Grand Canal can do better back over this shorter trip. But HAMMY END went close over 1m5f at Bath a fortnight ago when finishing in front of Cinnabar and Bill Muir’s charge may finally get his head back in front with an apprentice’s 5lb allowance helping his cause.
